One of the keys is No Turnover. Bombers lead the league last year (and again this year) in generating turnovers.

Nice to know of this character side of Mr. Purifoy, a bit of a feelgood story, but please, before they spread him too thin and place him on offence (as he's apparently offered) help the young fellow master the task at hand, be it at safety or wherever they deploy him on defense. He's got good stuff. Perhaps he'll get us a turnover tonight! Here's hopin'.

Excellent start.

Mixing it up on defence, moving guys around, blitzing. Very unlike a Wally defence.

Lulay showing arm strength, accuracy, confidence and calmness.

Strange call on going for two.

Out-foxed on punt block = detailed prep by O'Shea.

Self scouting issue.

Watching from the stands Awe's knockdown looked good and LeFevour didn't make it in. How did it look from HD big screens at home?

How can you have no yards on a blocked punt? The ball has already been touched.

That was not a TD. Zebras 0-2 on those calls.
